Not banning specific users, but limiting every user to 1 vote

What happened to this stream

I think it’s already recognized that alt voting is prohibited, and any investigation into it the validity of an election would no doubt look into that very issue.

But, always good to add Congress’s statement to the matter. I’d vote for it.

It’s a no-brainer!

Yeah, just something to solidify it, so people can't claim, as Richard did in the past, "there's no explicit rule against it!"

Hah. Yup. There’s no explicit rule against a lot in life. Having a moral compass certainly helps, but for those who need assistance, there are laws.

Some folks these days need a damn GPS

"moral machinery"

Lol

I'll vote for it. What's the definition of clear alts?

That actually might be hard to write into law. We could start with people who join the stream within a week of creation or show unusual knowledge of or interest in events long prior to their joining.

That's the old catch 22, then. We can't define alts even tho we know em when we see em. The mods aren't allowed to confirm or deny stuff like MAC, IP address or VPN usage due to security and privacy concerns.
So I can literally make 68 more accounts (SurlyKong1 thru SurlyKong68) vote 69 times and all the votes count if the accounts are at least 30 days old and have 10k a piece?
...

Well, mods have confirmed IP for white nat alts before, we could have trials for if someone is clearly an alt. In the US constitution, we don't define everything that lets you determine if someone is guilty. You could never define it all

I guess that's the best we can do...

Sry I'm not able to be on long today. I have online school to do whenever I'm not doing something with my grandparents. I'll be on later tonight and might be able to draft this
